Bulgaria

On the way to Turkey we had to go through Bulgaria. The drive was very beautiful.My first time to Bulgaria. On the way to Turkey, our bus ride was really fast. However, on the way back we waited at the Turkish/Bulgarian borders on both sides for over 5 hours!!! We had to wait for the fat jerk border guards to search everyone's bags and steal what they wanted. Most of the Romanians on the bus go to Turkey to stock up on cheap crap to sell in Romania so they bring huge bags. After the guards searched the bus on both sides, the driver couldn't fit everything back in so they tried to put boxes under our feet. Cristian took the boxes and slid them back into the aisle. We were not about to suffer because of the greedy store owners. After the ride back to Romania we decided that we would fly wherever we go and pay the extra money. It was a bummer because the ride there was very nice. The bus stewardess even goes up and down the aisle every 30 minutes to offer water, coffee, tea and soda. We even got snacks.
